单纯前交叉韧带断裂的原位修复与重建：被遗忘关节评分及残余松弛与关节感知的相关性
简介
该回顾性队列研究比较了85例孤立性ACL断裂患者（26例初次修复、59例腘绳肌腱自体移植物重建）术后至少24个月的临床结局，发现两组在Lysholm、IKDC、Tegner评分、术后松弛度及重返运动率上无显著差异，但修复组Forgotten Joint Score-12（FJS-12）显著更高（87.0 vs 77.5），提示关节感知更接近正常膝关节。多因素…
英文摘要
BACKGROUND: Primary anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) repair has recently reemerged as a treatment option for carefully selected proximal ACL tears. However, evidence regarding patient-reported joint awareness and the relationship between postoperative laxity and joint awareness remains limited. PURPOSE: To compare joint awareness, clinical outcomes, and postoperative laxity between primary ACL repair and hamstring tendon autograft reconstruction in carefully selected patients with isolated ACL rupture, and to explore the association between residual laxity and postoperative joint awareness. STUDY DESIGN: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study included 85 patients with isolated ACL rupture treated with either primary ACL repair (n = 26) or hamstring autograft reconstruction (n = 59), with a minimum follow-up of 24 months. Clinical outcomes, including visual analog scale score, Lysholm score, International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) score, Tegner activity scale score, postoperative knee laxity, return to sport, and rerupture rates, were evaluated. The authors also used the Forgotten Joint Score-12 (FJS-12), a measure of joint awareness, to evaluate patients. A higher score reflects lower joint awareness, suggesting function more similar to a native knee. Multivariable regression analyses were performed to evaluate variables associated with postoperative FJS-12 values. RESULTS: No differences were observed between groups in postoperative Lysholm, IKDC, and Tegner activity scale scores; Lachman- and pivot-shift-assessed postoperative laxity; and return-to-sport rates. However, postoperative FJS-12 values were significantly higher in the repair group compared with the reconstruction group (87.0 ± 15.0 vs 77.5 ± 14.2; mean difference, 9.5 points [95% CI, 2.8-16.3]; P = .006), corresponding to a moderate effect size (Cohen d = 0.66). Secondary exploratory regression analyses demonstrated that residual postoperative laxity was associated with lower postoperative FJS-12 values in both Lachman- and pivot-shift-based models (R2 = 0.649 and 0.680, respectively; P < .001 for both). CONCLUSION: In carefully selected patients with proximal ACL tears and adequate tissue quality, no significant between-group differences were detected in conventional clinical outcomes, postoperative laxity, return-to-sport rates, or rerupture rates between primary ACL repair and reconstruction. Primary ACL repair was associated with higher postoperative FJS-12 values at short- to midterm follow-up, suggesting function more similar to that of a native knee. Residual postoperative laxity was associated with lower FJS-12 values in secondary exploratory analyses.
